The number of cars and trucks has 
grown rapidly in the past twenty-five years, and demands for more, and 
better roads have become familiar in almost all parts of the country. In 
1905 only 565 motor vehicles were registered in Canada. This figure grew 
steadily, however, and by 1925 it had reached 725,000, In 1948 there were 
2,035,352 vehicles registered including 1,497,409 passenger cars and 49,736

An increase in wheat acreage 
of 247,700 acres will bring the 
prairie total this year to 26,083,- 
700, according to the first crop 
reports of the season. 

The reports issued by Canadian Pa- 
cific and Canadian National railways 
showed Manitoba wheat acreage 
would be up seven per cent. at 2,- 


berta’s acreage unchanged, 

Moisture conditions across’ the 
prairies are considered generally sat- 
isfactory and range from “very sat- 


isfactory’” in Manitoba to “fair to 
favorable” in the two remaining 
provinces. 


According to the railway reports, 
fall and winter precipitation was 42.8 
per cent. above normal in Saskatche- 
wan and 27.1 per cert. above normal 
in Alberta. Precipitation in Mani-

National Hockey League All-Stars 


Red Kelly And Milt Schmidt 


Top All Players In Points 


MONTREAL.—Detroit Red Wings 
and Boston Bruins failed to make 
the Stanley Cup finals but they cer- 
tainly dominated the 1950-51 Nation- 
al Hockey League All-Star Team. 
Between them they contributed all 
six players to this year’s squad, Four 
players from Detroit and two from 
Boston were named to berths on the 
select sextet. 

Gordie Howe of Detroit finally un- 
seated Canadiens’ Maurice Richard 
as right wing on the team after 
Richard had held down the post for 
six consecutive seasons. Milt Schmidt, 
33-year-old captain of the Boston 
Bruins and a veteran of 12 N.H.L. 
campaigns, made the League's All- 
Star Team for the second time in his 
career, Schmidt made the center 
spot. As a matter of fact Schmidt 
and Defenseman Red Kelly were the 
only two unanimous selections on 
this year’s aggregation. Other De- 
troit players to make the team be- 
sides Howe and Kelly were Terry 
Sawchuk in goal and Ted Lindsay at 
left wing. Defenseman Bill Quack- 
enbush waz the other Boston player 
to gain top rating. 

Following is the 1950-51 N.HLL. 
First and Second All-Star Teams 
with the number of points compiled 
by each player: 

First Team 


Terry Sawchuk, Detroit (70), goal. 

Red Kelly, Detroit (90), defense. 

Bill Quackenbush, Boston (68), 
defense, 

"Milt Schmidt, Boston (90), center. 

Gordie Howe, Detroit (81), R. wing. 

Ted Lindsay, Detroit (86), L.. wing. 

Second Team 

Chuck Rayner, Rangers (40), goal. 

Jim Thomson, Toronto (62), 

defense, 

Leo Reise, Detroit (50), defense. 

Ted Kennedy, Toronto (35), center. 

Sid Abel, Detroit (35), center, tie. 

Maurice Richard, Canadiens (63), 

R. wing. 

Sid Smith, Toronto (33), L. wing. 

The 1950-51 N.H.L. All-Stars were 
picked by hockey writers and broad- 
casters in the six League cities. 
Eighteen ballots were sent into 
League Headquarters, three from 
each city, Points were awarded on 
the basis of five points for a first 
choice, three for a second and one 
for a third. A unanimous choice 
polled 90 points. Each member of 
the First Team is the recipient of 
$1,000 from the N.H.L., while each 
member of the second squad receives 
$500. 

Terry Sawchuk, rookie Detroit 
goalie, was named to that position 
on each of the 18 ballots, He was 
the first choice of 10, second choice 


of six and the third choice of two. | 


His 70 points were 30 more than his 
closest rival, Chuck Rayner of New 
York Rangers. Rayner was named 
on 14 of the 18 ballots. He had five 
first-choices, three seconds and six 
third-choices. Al Rollins, Toronto 
Maple Leafs’ rookie goaltender, was 
the only other netminder to garner 
a sizeable’ number of points. Rollins 
polled 36 points. 

Red Kelly, Bill Quackenbush, 
Jimmy Thomson of Toronto and Leo 
Reise of Detroit stood head and 
shoulders over the rest of the de- 
fensemen in the balloting. The rest 
of the rearguards weren't even close 
in the voting. Kelly, the red-headed 
Irishman, was the first choice on all 
18 ballots and he had a perfect score 
of 90. Quackenbush was the first 
choice of nine, the second choice of 
seven and the third pick of two. His

total of 68 points was six more than 
polled by Thomson. The Toronto de- 
fender had eight firsts, six seconds 
and four thirds. Detroit’s Leo Reise 
partnered Thomson on the Second 
Team. Reise polled 50 points. He 
had 16 second-place selections and 
two third-place choices. 

Milt Schmidt was the first choice 
on all 18 ballots for the center posi- 
tion, while Ted Kennedy of Toronto 
and Sid Abel of Detroit ended up in 
a dead heat for the Second Team. 
Kennedy and Abel each had nine 
second-choice votes and eight thirds 
for a total of 35 points. Max Bentley 
of Toronto was the only other player 
to receive any recogniton at center 
and he polled two third-place votes. 

Gordie Howe moved up to the First 
Team this year after holding down 
the right wing berth on the Second 
Team for ‘the last two years. He 
polled 81 points to Richard's 63, It 
was strictly a two-man battle for 
right wing honors, Tod Sloan of 
Toronto was an automatic third 
choice on all 18 ballots. Howe was 
the first choice on 13 ballots, while 
Richard was the first choice of four. 
They split one first-place selection. 

Seven players earned points in the 
balloting for left wing but only three 
were considered seriously. Ted Lind- 
say made the First Team handily 
when he amassed 86 points, but the 
voting was closest for the second 
squad where Sid Smith of Toronto 
nosed out Chicago’s Roy Conacher 
by a single point, 33 to 32. Lindsay, 
the peppery Detroit wingman who is 
the only repeater from last year's 
First Team, had 17 first-place votes 
and one third selection for 86 points. 
Smith was the second choice of nine, 
and the third choice of six which 
gave him a point total of 33, Con- 
acher polled one first, eight seconds 
and three thirds for his 32 points. 

This is the first N.H.L. All-Star 
Team for rookie Terry Sawchuk, and 
it’s the first time that Red Kelly and 
Gordie Howe made the First Team. 
Both were members of the Second 
Team a year ago. It marks the third 
time Bill Quackenbush has gained a 
spot on the First Team. He was 
awarded a defense post in 1947-48 
and 1948-49 while a member of the 
Detroit Red Wings. Ted Lindsay is 
the only other three-time performer 
on this star-studded six. 

Three members of the Second 
Team, Goalie Chuck Rayner, Defense- 
man Leo Reise and Center Ted Ken- 
nedy, held down the same positions 
on the second sextet a year ago. This 
is the first time that Toronto’s Jim 
Thomson and Sid Smith have earned 
All-Star recognition. Sid Abel and 
Maurice Richard, other members of 
the Second Team this year held 
down positions on the First Team in 
1950, 

Average age of the 1950-51 N.H.L. 
All-Star Team is an even 26 years. 
Milt Schmidt is the oldest at 33 while 
Terry Sawchuk is the youngster at 
22. Kelly is 24, Quackenbush is 29, 
Lindsay is 25 and Howe is 23. 
Schmidt is the only player on the 
team who is married. 


Disputed Passage 


Woman Is 
Executive Of 
The Home 


NEW YORK.—Any woman who 
Says demurely. “I’m just a house- 
wife,” is too modest, Leone Ann 
Heuer believes, 

Miss Heuer has been advising fam- 
ilies out of financial predicaments for 
years, as the director of consumer 
education for the Household Finance 
Corp. Budgeting, usually a grim 
subject, is a lively topic to her, even 
when she’s on a trip away from her 
Chicago office. 

“Most people start a budget and 
then give up after a few weeks,” she 
commented. “They don’t realize that 
no budget is fun to get started, but 
if you stick at it long enough it gets 
to be habit.” 

Those old rules about one-fourth 
of the income for rent, a certain per- 
centage for food, and 10 per cent. in 
the savings account might as well be 
thrown out the window, she added 
firmly, With today’s prices, one 
family in a thousand could crowd 
their needs into these rigid columns. 

“First figure out what is essential 
to your family, then list the things 
you'd like to have,” Miss Heuer ex- 
plained. In the “Your Budget” book- 
let recently published by her corpor- 
ation, a wish list is provided, with 
three sections, for things you want 
soon, those you want during the next 
year, and wishes for the future, 


“Just take for an example a wom- 
an who gets a big kick out of brows- 
ing around stores and occasionally 
picking up something for her home 
or her wardrobe,” Miss Heuer said. 
“This impulse buying is the biggest 
danger to family budgeting, yet take 
away from her enjoyment of life if 
you force her to stop entirely. This 
woman could plan to use some of her 
reserve fund in the budget for occa- 
sional shopping trips.” 

Saving just for the sake of stack- 
ing away money doesn’t impress the 
budget expert. She insisted that 
each family should save according to 
the wish list, plus its own estimates 
of old age security. 

Women, ‘she’s concluded, do most | 
of the budget planning,” and often 
run into a great deal of resistance 
from husbands who thifk it’s too 
much trouble.” Unless the man of 
the house and the kiddies get into 
the act, however, Miss Heuer admit- 
ted that a budget was useless: 

“Give the husband an allowance, 
like everybody else in the family, 
then don’t make him account for a| 
penny of it,” she said.

|Canadian Cancer 


To Impregnate Mosquitoes 
With Radioactive Phosphorus 


Scientists Hope To Obtain Information 
Helpful In Controlling Pests 


FORT CHURCHILL, Man. — Mosquitoes will be impregnated 
with radioactive phosphorus this summer. Then scientists from 
this northern military camp will trail them with Geiger counters. 
The scientists, from the staff of the defence research board, hope 
to obtain information helpful in controlling the pest in populated 
areas. 

It is not new. For the last two 
summers Canadian and American en- 
tomologists have used this method 
to cheek migration of mosquitoes 
from their breeding grounds. 

“Further work is anticipated,” said 
Bill Beckel, an official of the research 
board. 

Radioactive phosphorus is sprayed 
in ponds and it stays with the mos- 
quito from egg to adult stage. Mil- 
lions of mosquitoes are later caught 
by net near Fort Churchill. 

The mosquitoes are killed, spread 
over a table, scanned with a Geiger 
counter, Those which react are then 
known to have come from the spray- 
ed area, 

“We may know the distance it is 
necessary to control the mosquitoes 


Cancer Ranks 
Second As 
Death Cause 


Cancer, killer of more than 17,000 
Canadians last year ranks second to 
heart disease as a cause of death. 
Where does it stand as a cause of 
human suffering ? 

No one has ever rated diseases by 
the misery they cause, but everyone 
recognizes the dreadful impact of 
cancer in cases that cannot be cured. 
Here is a disease that reaches be- 
yond the patient to his family and 
his community. 

Months of care and treatment, 
heavy expenses, the sight of pain and 
need create cruel problems. The pa- 
tient and all those near him share 
a heavy burden. 

That is why the Canadian Cancer 
Society describes the campaign as a 
fight against cancer. That is why 
Society volunteers 
conduct fund-raising and educational 
campaigns with such zeal. 

Just as anyone may develop cancer 54

from the camp,” Mr, Beckel said. 

Right now his job is to establish 
a colony of northern mosquitoes at 
the laboratory and observe their be- 
havior. Guinea pigs will be used for 
their” “blood meals”, 

For although a mosquito is a plant 
feeder to a great extent, said Mr. 
Beckel, it seeks blood in preference 
to nectar and plant juices, 

“The majority of northern mos- 
quitoes must have blood to produce 
fertile eggs. Only the female mos- 
quitoes go after blood.” 

A blood meal lasts a mosquito 
about three days and, contrary to 
popular belief, she doesn’t die after 
one helping. 

Mr. Beckel says the black fly is a 
worse villain than the mosquito. 

“He doesn’t pierce. He literally 
tears a chunk out of you with his 
teeth.”

On The Side : -.v ix 
e E. V. Durling 

It was Byron who said: “Revenge is sweet especially to women.” As 
a young woman, Sarah Hyslop of London was humiliated by having her 
bridegroom fail to show up at the church for the wedding. She was in 
the same tragic and embarrassing situation as the young woman in Vesta 
Victoria’s song, “Waiting at the Church”, Following this experience, 


Sarah became an enemy of all men, She decided to be revenged on the 
male sex in general for the way one man had treated her. So she accepted 
the marriage proposals of many men, joined them in arrangements for a 
wedding and then failed to show up at the church, In all, Sarah left fifty- 
three different men waiting at the ¢hurch! 


Responsibility For High Shoes 
As I previously reported, high-heeled shoes were first worn by men, 
King Louis XIV of France, or maybe it was Louis XV, was @ short man, 
He was attracted by a statuesque blonde, He longed to be taller than she 
was. So the court bootmaker figured out the idea of high heels for his 
majesty. Then when the women of the court saw what high heels did for 
the king’s height, they decided to try them. The shoe which conceals the 
height building part is a comparatively recent invention, Its originator, 
Jesse Adler, was a very short man, He once asked a tall brunette to 
dance with him, The lengthy lady looked down at Jesse and then, kicking 
off her high-heeled shoes, said: ‘All right, let’s go!” This experience so 
humiliated Mr, Adler that he decided to do something about increasing his 
height. So he originated the so-called “elevator shoe”, 
Furious Pipe Smokers 
Pipe smokers generally maintain a calm attitude, but are dynamite 
when aroused, If your daughter is considering marrying a pipe smoker, 
have her remember this. Tell her not to stir the old boy up too much, 
When angry, pipe smokers throw things. The classic warning, “Beware 
the fury of a patient man,” was undoubtedly inspired by a pipe smoker. 


Home Managers On Overtime 

Maids and cooks are now being paid from $150 to $200 a month, 
course, they do no washing and have a five and a half day week, This 
gives an idea of what the average wife's housework would be worth if 
she were on salary. As the average wife cooks, cleans, washes, takes 
care of the kiddies, and works a seven-day week, her salary, were she paid 
for her home managing efforts, would be about $100 a week. Of course, 
I figure on overtime for all time over @ forty-hour week. And double

Subsidies 


Alberta Wheat Pool Budget, 
April 20, 1951 


The turmoil which has been | 
raised in Easteri Canada over | 
the $65 million federal grant to| 
the Wheat Board to make a fin-! 
al payment of 8.3c a bushel for | 
wheat in the 1945-49 pool, is, 

and should be, resented in Wes- | 
tern Canada. One would think! 
that the western wheet farmers 
were mendicants and they alone 
of all classes in Canada receiv. 
ed special treatment. That is 
tar from the case. 


H. H. Hannam, president of 
the Canadian Federation of Ag- 
riculture, has listed some feder- | 
al government subsidy pay-| 
ments made to groups and in-| 
dustries other than farmers, in| 
the 1949-50 fiscal year as fol- | 
lows:

Then special depreciation on 
$514 million invested was allow 
ed war industry during World 
War Il. | 

The Canadian tariff in itself, 
operates in the nature of a bon 
us to Canadian industries and | 
Ls oppressive particularly to’! 
people residing in the prairie ' 
provinces of Western Canada. | 
in the early 1930’s the late 
Hon. Norman Rogers, minister | 
of labor in the Canadian gov- 
ernment, prepared a table) 
showing how each province in| 
Canada was affected by the Do- 
minion’s tariff policy. | 

That table showed that at 
that time the Canadian tariffs | 
cost the people of Manitoba, | 
Saskatchewan and Alberta $54,- 
925,000 a year, or an annual av- 
erage charge of $23 on every 
man, woman and child in the 
three provinces. With the ex- 
pansion of Canadian industry 
and western purchasing, the 
figures may now be uoubled. 

‘The table also showed that! 
the provinces of Outario and 
Quebec had an annual gain 
through the tariff of $837 mil- 
lion. 

The $65 million grant by the 
federal government to the 
Wheat Board permits a pay- 
ment of 4 1-2 cents a bushel on 
1,436 million bushels of wheat | 
delivered by the farmers of 
Western Canada between 1945 | 
and 1949 inclusive. It brings 
the total payment up to a little | 
over $1.83 a bushel, basis one | 
Northern at the terminal, on to 
tal deliveries. 

Between March 1, 1945, and 
February 17, 1917, the Wheat) 
Board sold 160 million bushels | 
of wheat for domestic consump- | 
tion at $1.25 a bushel when the 
export price was $1.55. That 
Was a direct subsidy by the 
Wheat producers to Canadian 
consumers to the extent of $48 
million.

The Carbon Chronicle, Carbon, Alberta 


The prairie provinces of Wes- 
tern Canada constitute a land 
area of 452 million acres, of 

which 117 million are in occu- 
pied farms, 65 million acres be-| 
ing improved lands. This is one | 
of the most productive farming | 
regions in the world. 


During the war this area pro-! 
duced nearly 5 1-2 billion bush-| 
els of grain, over 5 billion Ibs. 


- pe e— 


of beef, and 8.6 billion Ibs. of | 
pork. This production resulted 
in Canadian people being am-| 
ong the best-fed in the world. 
and also provided 3.1 billion 
Ibs. of pork and 600 million lbs. 


of beef for export to Great | 


Britain. 


While Canada has experienc: 
ed a growing industrialism, 


which strengthens the nation’s 


conomic fabric, agricultural | 
production is still the mainstay 
of the national economy. The 
farmers of Western Canada, un- 
der the constant risk of drouth, 
hail and insect pests, have ren- 
dered an exceptional contribut- 
ion to the progress of the Can- 
adian nation. “Without a west” 
Canada would not be much of 
a nation. }

and ed, Throw it against a wall or use

a result it bounces out, 

Tight hands cause more errors in 
baseball and softball than anything 
else. Complete relaxation of the 
hands and wrists is something that 
rarely comes naturally; it has to be 


learned, 
Any of the great infielders such 
as Lou Boudreau, Marty Marion, 


Eddie Joost, Phil Rizzuto or George 
Stirnweiss had to know how to keep 
their hands “soft” -when taking a 
ground ball. Many professional teams, 
not only in baseball but in basketball 
and football, have at one time or 
another hired Bill Miller, the famous 
relaxation expert, to teach their play- 
ers not to tighten up. One of the 
first things he goes to work on are 
the hands. 

The sooner you become ‘hand con- 
scious’ the better your chance of be- 
coming a great fielder. The first 
problem is to gain enough control 
of the muscles to be able to relax 
them at will. Here is a simple drill 
that can be performed any time dur- 
ing the day and also during games 
or practices, 

It consists merely of clenching the 
hands for a few seconds — not too 
tightly, just enough to feel the ten- 
sion—and then relaxing them com- 
pletely. Let them drop loosely from 
the wrists If you do this often 
enough, in a very few weeks you will 
have much better control over your 
fingers and wrists. 

Next, learn to concentrate on re- 
laxation during fielding practices. 


50-Game Ball Schedule 


Western Canada 
Semi-Pro League 
Now Finalized 
MEDICINE HAT, Alta— Schedule 


and major constitution clauses of the 
six-team, semi-pro Western Canada 


Baseball league were finalized at a 
special weekend meeting. 

The conference was called by 
President Cliff N. Henderson of 


Moose Jaw, Sask. 
by delegates from the six member 
clubs—Regina Caps, Indian Head 
Rockets, Estevan Maple Leafs, Moose 
Jaw Canucks, Swift Current Indians 
and Medicine Hat (California) Mo- 
hawks, 

The 50-game league schedule opens 
from May 22 to June 1. Clubs will 
be allowed any number of registra- 
tions prior to Aug. 1, when no more 
will be permitted, 

Each club will be required to post 
a $1,000 guarantee and ancther $500 
apiece for league operation and um- 
pire costs. It is planned to engage 
three umpires for the full schedule. 

On gate receipts, the visiting club 
gets a $100 guarantee or 7 cents 
for each ticket sold, whichever is 
greater. The guarantee obtains if a 
game is rained out. But the post- 
poned game must be played as part 
of a doubleheader on the next return 
visit without guarantee for the one 
game.

CLEAN WINDOWS 


We took the storm sashes off today, 

Then washed the grime and dust

We made each giass so shiny bright 

They seemed to let in far more light. 


Each window is like a picture rare 

Revealing earth's beauty everywhere: 

The grasses green and the budding 
trees; 

And birds winging against the breeze. 


A neighbor's house or a distant spire, 

Or the setting sun like a ball of fire. 

The world is out there for us to see 

Through windows clean as clean can

Practice this ‘give’ with the ball 
during workouts with the regulation 
ball. Remember this: If you feel 
that ball smack against your hands, 
you are not relaxed enough. Treat 
every one as though someone were 
throwing an egg at you. 

Keeping the hands relaxed is ap- 
parently a minor thing. In reality, 
it isn’t; it’ is important enough to 
gain the big league nickname of 
“brick hands” for those who haven't 
got it. 

Because it seems such a_ small 
point, however, it is more often over- 
looked than any other fundamental. 
Make up your mind to become hand

coach's tfps on position, strategy and 
throwing will be useless if you can’t 
hang on to the ball.

Prairie Farmers Look For 
Less Grasshopper Trouble 


Indications Show Cycle Heading Downward In, 1951 


Everybody watches the business cycle, but prairie farmers 
watch the grasshopper cycle too. They're breathing more easily 
this year, because the grasshopper cycle seems headed downward 
in 1951. The hopper forecasters, who work for the Dominion Ento- 
mological service, prepare the brightly colored maps seen in post

In Manitoba, the area of infesta- 
tion forecast is much smaller than 
last vear's. It is mostly confined to 
the Red River Valley. In Saskatche- 
wan, the area is still extensive, but 
the severity will be less, The situa- 
tion is roughly the same in Alberta. 

The grasshopper cycle has_ hit 
three important peak periods (as 
well as other infestation years). ‘The 
first hump in the infestation curve 
was 1918-23, The second big ohe was 


1932-35. The third one started in 
1949, runs through this year. The 
periods are roughly defined, of 
course. Damage depends on weather 


after hatching. Control measures are 
always more effective with favorable 
weather, 

Grasshoppers are not all of a kind: 


three types cause most of the dam-|

Legless Woman 
Receives House 
From Builders 


CALGARY.— Annie Anderson has 
a home of her own today—thanks to 
some friends who have stuck by her 
for many years, and some other 
friends she didn’t know she had, 

Annie lost her legs in a street car 
accident in 1915. Recently she has 
been worried because she was going 
to have to leave the home in which 


she had stayed since 1932. Two old 
friends told her not to worry; they 
would find her a place to stay. 

On April 24 Annie left her old 


lodgings and her friends took her to} 


see what she thought was going to 
be a suite. Instead she was brought 
to a new house, and told that it was 
hers. 

She was presented with the house 
keys by Carl Harstrom, president of 
the Calgary House Builders’ associa- 
tion, whose members had donated the 
time, materials and labor to build her 
a place all her own,

The chief villian is the field or mi- 
gratory grasshopper. This fellow, 
|who gets around more than other 
|grasshoppers which stick closer to 
their hatching locale, causes the big 
damage in Alberta and Saskatche- 
wan, The clear wing hopper and the 
two-striped hopper are the problem 
in Manitoba. They are found in 
grasslands, headlands, ditches and 
roadbanks mostly, whereas the field 
hopper gets right in the crop. The 
|farmer has to spray or bait right 
|through the crop to get the field 
hopper. Tillage to plow under hop- 
per eggs is important in field hopper 
control, 

The anti-hopper programs of the 
farmers, their municipal councils and 
the provincial governments have 
}done a lot to bring down the 1951 
menace: they knocked the hoppers 
tor a loop in large areas predicted 
for heavy infestation last year. 

It costs money to fight grasshop- 
pers: the first year of this cycle $1.2 
millions worth of materials and su- 
pervisors time were used in Saskat- 
chewan alone. That doesn’t count 
the farmers’ time. But the same year 
the hoppers ate an estimated $29 
millions of crop in the province, 80 
curbing of the cycle is worth it.

Even where there is lots of room 
to spare the average person is liable 
to crowd his planting. This is true 
just as much with rows of vegetables 
as it is with trees. Seeds and seed- 
lings are usually such tiny, little 
\things that it is hard to realize the 
extent of the resulting growth. ; 

A rough rule is to allow as much 
space between the plants, trees, 
shrubbery or annuals as these things 
will be high at maturity. Now with 
a big affair like a maple, elm or 
spruce tree, that means at least 40- 
50 feet apart, though the full space 
may not be required for years. Going 
to the other end of the scale, tiny 
alyssum would need an inch or #0 
between plants, carrots about 4 
inches, staked tomatoes 18 inches, 
giladioli about a foot. 

This spacing is important. It gives 
the plants a chance to develop, If

ers and vegetables will be spindly, 
with the growth weak and a prey 
to the first storm. Flowers, as well 
as vegetables, will be poorly develop- 
ed, With a little elbow room, ‘too, 
cultivation will be easier.

will be the space between the rows 
also to consider. It-is a great mis- 
take to have this léss than 12 inches 
for even the tiniest. If less than 
this one will have great difficulty in 
cultivating, and cultivating regclarty 
is one of the most important jobs 
in the garden, 


Soil Must Be Fed 


No matter. how naturally rich a 
garden soil is, it will benefit from 
some applications of fertilizer. 

The gardener should understand 
that he is using his soil very inten- 
sively, very much more intensively 
in fact than does the farmer, In a 
small plot of ground a great many 
things are being grown and the same 
plot of soil is used over and over 
again. Secondly, the fertilizer is 
being used for several purposes, not 
just to feed particular vegetables, 
flowers or shrubbery but to get big- 
ger and better blooms, earlier vege- 
tables, and in some cases to bring 
on growth or maturity quickly’ be- 
fore frost or to get ahead of disease 
or insects. 

The best general fertilizer, of 
course, is well rotted manure but 
that is a pretty rare commodity in 
most parts of Canada. A good sub- 
stitute and an excellent thing for 
speeding growth is chemical fertiliz- 
er, but it must be used according to 
directions. Rotted humus or compost 
will also help build up soil and also 
digging in a “cover” crop of clover, 
rye, oats, or just plain weeds.

No One Knew That Parrysh

From A Crumbling Edge.

v trickle over his knees as it fell 
in little cataracts from his hands. 
The beach was warm from the sun 
of mid-afternoon. Blue waves dim- 
pled and broke white at his feet. Pur- 
posely he had come to this deserted 
cove along the beach at Sorrento. 
He wanted solitude. 

For six months, since the tragic 
death of Christian Bieler, his niece 
and ward, Blaine had kept himself 
surrounded by friends. He had haunt- 
ed the places of light and movement 
where he had no time to think, At 
first the white, terrified face of Chris- 
tian had haunted him... At the ban- 
quet table, the ball, the club; but his 
friends, with jest and laugh, drove it 
away. ‘ 

Christian Bieder had fallen from 
the cliffs at  Smedport. Perhaps 
mercifully, it had been given her to 
die before she reached the rocks five 
hundred feet below. No one knew 
that Parrysh Blaine had refused to 
help her when her frail fingers were 
slipping, slipping from the crumbling 
edge. Callously he had watched her, 
his lips twisted with the force of the 
awful temptation he yielded to so 
readily, Her cries, her pleading, he 
did not heed» They were soon stilled, 

Accident. The police, the friends 
of Christian and Parrysh Blaine 
never questioned the nature of her 
death. There was no motive to 
awaken suspicion, Blaine and his 
ward had been as intimate, seeming- 
ly, as father and daughter. 
often strolled along the path by the 
cliff edge, Blaines explanation was 
straightforward: a windy day, a de- 
ceptive spot where the grass grew 
high over the edge, a gust that lifted 
Christian’s hat, a lunge after it... 
and she was over. It was a fair ex- 


planation; who would question it in}. 


the ‘face of her guardian’s grief, 
fought down with tortured effort? 

The large estate left by Christian 
was added to Blaine’s fortune: he 
was her only relative. Of course, 
folks said, her money could mean lit- 
tle to him. For years he had prac- 
ticed law successfully; his own hold- 
ings must be great. But they did 
not know the truth. Blaine’s ways 
were secret and profound, Gambling 
was a passion and, of late, when his 
own money was wasted, he dipped 
deeply into Christian’s and lost a 
good part. He knew the time for an 
accounting was not remote, and even 
though he were spared the ignominy 
of prison he would certainly be de- 
prived of the means with which to 
gamble. 


| 
And Blaine was a man who loved 


life; those of its pleasures which one 
can enjoy best with the sesame of 
wealth, Almost dispassionately he 
had planned to remove from his path 
the young girl, a frail obstacle easy 
to overcome. A push, sudden and 
violent, had sent her over the edge. 
Her clutching fingers had snatched 
at the grass and shrubs, her birdlike 
strength had held her long enough 
for him, if he willed, to have saved 
her. But he had smiled... a twist- 
ed smile. 

When the days of well-feigned la- 


menting were over Blaine went far 
away. In Paris, Monte Carlo, Biar- 
ritz . along the Riviera he lost 


himself to any conscience that might 

“have accused him, He picked up gay 
companions. He shunned the gloomy 
aspects of life and dreaded to look 
upon violence as a man threatened 
with blindness fears to read in ob- 
scure light. 

Though successful in putting down 
the memory that would have driven 
some men to insanity, he felt the 
dominating power of the crime upon 
his life. He fled, though he did not 
know it, from a spectre. He lost 
himself down alleys of laughter, try- 
ing to forget the last picture of her 
face, 

He guarded another secret, con- 
fided tb him by a surgeon in Milan: 
his heart was weak. Undisturbed by

shock, it might function for years. 
But he must be careful. 

He was careful. More tenaciously 
now that his own grip was weaken- 
ing, he clung to life.’ Lying on the 
sands at Sorrento, warm, filled with 
a sense of well-being, able to go 
alone and free from remorse, he 
loved life. Oh, yes, he would take 
care. He would live in tranquil sur- 
roundings such as.these. What could 
touch him? 

He smiled. Idly he lifted his eyes 
from a tall cone of sand he had built, 
and gazed around. Sea, sky and be- 
hind him the rugged cliff. No sign 
of life, unless that bit of white, the 
sail of a fishing boat or that daub 
of black from a steamer’s funnel, 
could be called life. Even the birds 
that lived in the rocky eyries were 
still. How secure he felt. It would 
be always so. Yet he hungered for 
a touch of life. One alone is easy 
prey to fear. Perhaps with his binoc- 
ulars .., 

The fishing boat, the steamer, 
were too far away forreven the pow- 
erful glasses. Blaine squirmed around 


and trained them on the cliffs. Ah, 
there was someone , . .! 
Blaine’s shoulders stiffened. © The 


Binoculars seemed part of him; yet, 
could he have done so, he would have 
dashed them away.> Vividly, as on a 
screen, he saw a picture framed in 
the lenses. High up on the cliff were 
aman and a girl. The girl, young, 
dressed in white, with a bonnet of 
straw hanging by a ribbon from her 
arm ,.. the girl was strangely like 
Christian. The man was older, She 
was struggling in his arms... 
Christian had not fought like that. 


It was not easy to force this one 
over. Back and forth, back and 
\forth . . , Would it ever end! There 


. she was over. Like Christian, 
she managed to twine her fingers in 
the grass and cling desperately. But 
she would slip. She must slip. Hide- 
ous act... the man placed his heel 
upon “her hand and crushed it with 
all his weight. 

A few days later the home papers 
carried a short item: Parrysh Blaine, 
well-known lawyer, was found dead 
on the sands at Sorrento. Death was 
caused by disease of the heart, The 
body was discovered by some-motion- 
picture actors who had been shoot- 
ing a scene of the cliffs during the 
afternoon.

FIRST MALE NURSE

it'll be James Bullen, R.N. Mr. 
Bullen, 33, graduated as a fully- 
qualified nurse, first man in Brit- 
ish Columbia history to do so. 


Along with the 110 girls in his 
graduating class at St. Paul's 
school of nursing, he wore white 
—white slacks and tunic. The 
girls carried bouquets but he set-

need for male nurses,” he said, 


“It's been fun,” he said of his 
three years in training. 2932"

OIL MAKES A COUNTRY STRONG 


“SURE...1 WAS HERE WHEN IT STARTED!” 


(em PERIAL 


You can bet Jimmie was on hand when the first Imperial drilling 
crew turned up at the farm gate. And he’s been an untiring fence post 
superintendent ever since. But that’s not all—in his short lifetime 
he's lived enough years to see the growth of a new major industry. 


Less than five years ago Canada's oil pooducing industry was far 
from robust. Our oil fields were dwindling and produced only one 
barrel in every 10 we used. 


Today only eight countries in the world are known to have larger 
oil reserves than Canada, And production this year is expected to 
meet about one-third of our needs. 


Every barrel of this “home grown’ crude lessens our dependence 
on other countries and brings us a step closer to self-sufficiency in 
oil. With oil increasingly important to our daily life in peace or 
war, any improvement in security of supply means new security 
for Jimmie and for all of us. 


Canada's newest major industry gives promise of becoming one of 
her greatest.
